Governor's Cup

Mile Fun Run

For those not taking part in the Kid’s Marathon training program through a participating school (adults and children alike), you can register separately for the 1-mile Fun Run, which will be contested along with the Kid’s Marathon at Centennial Park at 6:30 p.m. Friday, June 10. This is a non-timed event.

Marathon

The point-to-point 26.2-mile adventure – a USATF certified Boston Qualifier – starts about 3 miles southwest of Jefferson City near the mining Ghost Town of Wickes, and features a moderate downhill start in a beautiful rural setting. Runners will encounter a demanding section of hills from Miles 16 to 20, and will face Cardiac Hill at the start of Mile 24. This marathon isn’t your run-of-the mill course designed to make qualifying for Boston easy, but if you lock up a qualifier here, you certainly will be set up to run extremely well in Beantown or wherever your running takes you next. If you can handle Cardiac Hill, Heartbreak Hill shouldn’t scare you. Visit www.govcupmt.com for links to course maps and elevation profiles.

Half Marathon

The 13.1-mile journey starts in Clancy and joins up with the marathon route less than a mile into the race. Runners will encounter a demanding hill section at Miles 3 to 7, and will face the aptly named Cardiac Hill at the start of Mile 11. Participants looking for a beautiful setting and a challenge will arrive at the finish line satisfied and hungry for more. The net elevation loss is 162 feet (4,272 to 4,110) and the cumulative elevation gain throughout the race is 638 feet. Visit www.govcupmt.com for links to course maps and elevation profiles.
